Here I am... behind the blocks I am up next to swim my very first, 100 breaststroke. I here nothing, I see people cheering, screaming, dancing in happiness. Im so nervouse I feel like I'm going to throw up. I have my cap and goggles on tight, everyone finishes and I'm on the blocks waiting to go in the pool. " Take your mark... Beep! " And I'm off, I do my pullout, I come out of the water, I take my first 50 faster than my moderate pace, then my last 50 I give it hell! I finish and I touch the wall, I look at the board to see what place I was in... and I got 2nd!!! YAY! I was so happy. I went over to the coaches table and my coach Mike told me
" WOW!Bethany! Your breaststroke was so beautiful, for an eight year old you were pretty dang good."
" thank you, that race felt pretty good. " I say smiling.
" Well that looked good,make sure to go warm down "
